Hope we can still put up a good fight. What a loss.

Well both teams outs cancel it out now and makes it an even contest. No excuses!

In general I like the idea of Luke imitating Porzingis. But perhaps he's taking it a bit too far.

He should also get his injury right, KP generally has knee, ankle, calf, back or foot injuries, not hamstring.

It's details like this that will stop us getting banner 18.

Here's hoping the Celtics don't play down to the competition again, which we know they always do.

They’re 12-1 against bottom 10 teams, with an average differential of +16

Lottery ass Lakers having 2 All Stars is a sham.

Kings fans must be furious. 5th seed vs. 9th seed, who are under .500.

You know what I'm talking about. This team has a tendency to play down to their competition. The record might not show it, but their level of play is not up to par compared to when they go up against the better teams. They might get a win in the end, but not before giving us a scare at some point in the game.

Always do?

Yes. I think a lot of posters here can attest to that. They do have a tendency to play down to their competition.

Enjoy the big game everyone!

Go C's let's get this win!!

Maybe last season, but definitely not this season.

Your expectations are just too high.

There are no free meals in the NBA.

What's important is the Cs get the win in the end.

Besides losing to Charlotte, there are only 2 games, against bad teams, I can remember that the Cs struggled to win.
That was against Memphis and Detroit.

37 wins, only 1 loss to a bad team, and 2 close calls against bad teams.

So no, Celtics do not always play down to their competition.

Not really, they dominate bad teams. Only one team in the league has been better against the worst teams. I think people are guilty of just looking at the Celtics, and not what happens around the league.

Also the best in the league against good teams and mediocre teams as well. That must be how we are somehow 37-11 despite being bad at everything.

Eh, not really. 17-2 against teams below .500. In the past? Maybe. But this year they dominate bad teams.

I certainly hope so.

Weird. Why isn't there a Celtics broadcast?

Admittedly, I am one of those. I really only care what happens to the Celtics and don't pay much attention to other teams. If they're performing better this season against bad teams, then good for them. I maybe just have some PTSD from the previous seasons where the Celtics were guilty of playing down to their competition.

TNT blacks out the game here in LA. What a joke. I hate the LakeShow with a passion.

I hope we pound the snot out of these scrubs.
